0:00After getting my little booty spanked over the past few nights, I've come up with a solution to how I'm finally going
0:06to draft a good team. And that is simple. I'm going to wait for all the good drafters to be asleep. I'm going to
0:13wait until about midnight, hop into a draft, and see if we can catch some people slipping. See if we can catch
0:20some people. Maybe they had one too many of these sparkling waters and they're feeling some type of way. We get lucky,
0:27we're going to be at pick two. So, we're going to get either Bejian or Jamir Gibbs here. And yes, chat has um
0:34accurately pointed out that it is midnight when we are going live here.
0:39So, it being midnight is pretty crazy. I agree. And yes, you are correct. Mrs.
0:45Flock is not happy with me right now waiting to live stream until this late, but it is what it is. I told y'all I was
0:53going to be live every single day until Christmas. how I am every single year.
0:59We've been live for like a 100 days straight at this point. You better believe we're going to keep this streak up. So, even if I just got out of a
1:07fivehour recording with all the members of the Flock League, you better believe I'm going to run my little booty over here and get this going for y'all. But,
1:16Bejon at two, it's simple. We don't need to talk about why. For me, Gibbs, Bejon, they're in a tier by themselves. Um, a
1:24lot of creators on flockfantasy.com are starting to get their draft sheets out on the site as well. I'm sure you already saw this, but almost any league
1:33setting that you are putting in here to flocky.com. You'll see that the expert average rankings also have Jir Gibbs and Bejian Robinson in their own tier. So,
1:44um, sleeper ADP, like if you're drafting on sleeper would tell you to take um, bean ahead of Gibbs. The expert average
1:50ranks though and my rankings as well have Jir Gibbs ahead of Bejon. But yeah, I think there's a pretty consensus top
1:57tier of two players with Gibbs as well as Bejian Robinson. Now, of course, if you're in a superflex draft, then at
2:05that point, you could consider going through and say you turn it on superflex. Let's go through and let's throw my rankings into here. Um, and if
2:15you're using my rankings in a superflex draft, you could possibly consider going with like Josh Allen or Lamar
2:25Jackson, but even in Superflex, I have Gibbs and Bejon ahead of those quarterbacks as well. Now, let's pull this around. James Cook, Mari, and
2:33Hampton both go off the board at 12 and 13.
2:38Year says, "It's the earliest I have started researching for reddraft." Well, I hope it pays off for you, my friend.
2:43and I hope you have a phenomenal year.
2:47Fuji says, "I'm glad Mason's streaming now to be honest since there's nothing going on in the cruise. Just made two picks in my first ever startup at the
2:55moment. It's a flock discord one, too."
2:57Well, good luck, my friend. I hope you're having fun on the cruise. Where are you going on the cruise now? Let's
3:04see. Barkley off at 15, AG Brown all the way up to 16 here. I've actually noticed on a lot of reddraft platforms. Um, AJ
3:12Brown has a much higher ADP than what I've been used to. Like, let me pull up the consensus ADP sheets. So, obviously
3:20this taking into account Sleeper, ESPN, Yahoo, Underdog, CBS, FFPC, and the Flockfantasy.com rankings. Let's move over to wide receiver and AG Brown in
3:29some platforms like I guess actually mainly just underdog is going in the middle of the second round. Never mind.
3:34ESPN, you can get AJ Brown in the middle of the third. Sleeper can get him in the middle of the third as well. And even in
3:40Yahoo drafts, he goes at the very beginning of the third round. So, I know I did a Fantasy Pros mock draft with
3:46them on their channel a while ago, and I saw AJ Brown get taken at the one-two turn there. So, maybe that just threw me
3:51off. But actually, I'm wrong. Looking at the data on flockfantasy.com, it actually looks like you can get him in some of these drafts in the third. Now,
4:00let's swing this back. Obviously, I have Nico as the highest ranked player for me here. Nico does go. We'll just go ahead
4:07and be boring. We'll take George Piggin to pair up with Bejian Robinson. Make sure we don't fall too far behind at
4:12wide receiver. If Piggin repeats what he did last year, he absolutely crushes at this cost. Now, of course, it's hard to
4:18assume that he repeats given the fact that um CD Lamb's most likely not going to have a high ankle sprain. Now, we'll
4:26see. I take a lot of Jeremiah Love at the beginning of the third. If we don't get Jeremiah Love, I'll take Trey
4:30McBride. We're going to take Jeremiah Love. I've taken Love in 9.6% of my drafts. I know people hate that. I completely understand. Um I think the
4:39main reason people hate it is because the last two running backs that were drafted super early in bad offenses that ended up not working out, they were
4:48Bejon and Ashton Genty. And obviously Genty is the most recent example. But I want to point out with those running backs that face planted is they were
4:57both round one picks in their rookie seasons. Jeremiah Love is a third round pick. So, I think people have learned their lessons and I think it's fine
5:04taking Jeremiah Love in the third round, even though every YouTuber you ever watch is going to tell you that it's the
5:09worst pick you can make. Um, now, let me move this over and I'll show y'all off. I know typically we're
5:19only doing the $5 drafts in um these live streams on Underdog. I wanted to mix in Basketball Mania because we haven't done a Basketball Mania draft in
5:28forever. Just in case you don't know what this tournament is on Underdog.
5:31It's the largest tournament on Underdog Fantasy. $25 buy in, $15 million prize pool. Two million of first, million dollar second. You can see all the
5:39prizes here. The highest I've ever finished in this tournament is actually 16th place. The year I finished though, the prize pool is structured a little
5:46differently. So 16th place was only 10,000. This year it would be 70,000 though. So hopefully I can repeat that.
5:52If not, win and just take down the 2 million, which obviously would be the big goal. But um baseball mania like the
5:59$5 underdog drafts that we do of course is still best baseball drafts. So still no time commitment at all during the
6:04season to draft hundreds of teams every offseason. That's how I profited over $127,000 in these underdog drafts as well. And if you wanted to draft with
6:14us, you can find the link in the description in the comment section. If you use code flock, you're going to get
6:19$50 added to your account after you play your first five. And you'll get free access to the flockfantasy.com best baseball tools and my best rankings as
6:27well. That we have an advantage in these drafts. Again, links in the description and comment section. Now, no name here says, "Is it a standard PPR, half PPR?
6:36It's going to be a half PPR league for the majority of these underdog drafts."
6:39They do have PPR drafts as well, though.
6:44Okay. Now T. Higgins off the board at pick 37. Um, pretty big fall for Higgins in comparison to where he's been going.
6:51But the main fall in this draft, the one that I really like the cost of is Trey McBride at 34.
7:04Like McBride at 34 starting Jefferson Barkley. McBride is insane. I absolutely love this team at 10.
7:14Love it. Let's move this over. JT says, "Why have you not added Brian Thomas Jr.
7:18to your breakout wide receiver list this series? Doing great in camp and I have local insight." So, here's the deal.
7:24When it comes to our breakout wide receiver video, I wanted to include wide receivers that have never been like a top 24 wide receiver in fantasy. I think
7:32that's the threshold that we used. And Brian Thomas has already crushed that.
7:35Brian Thomas was a top 12 wide receiver in his rookie season. Like if Brian Thomas was going to like he's not going to quote unquote
7:44break out. If he has a big year, I'd classify him as a bounceback candidate, not necessarily a breakout candidate.
7:51Now, let's pull this around. Luther Burden goes 44. So, this team had fives.
7:56He had to take a running back.
8:01We'll see what we end up getting. We have Bejon Robinson, Jeremiah Love, and George Pickkins. Mike Evans off the board. So, we're going to get Scat or
8:07Terry.
8:10We'll take Scat. I don't know if we're getting the fall based on him doing the back flip. And then there was a viral
8:14tweet of somebody saying like, "Oh, he walked by my card booth and he was limping."
8:19So, maybe that's what's getting priced in here. But, I'm completely fine taking him at 47. And then we need a wide
8:26receiver more than anything, but Lovelin's the highest ranked player for me. And I also only have Lovelin in 4.4% 4% of my drafts because a couple things
8:35have to happen for me to take Lovelind.
8:37One, he needs to fall to the fifth round. And two, it needs to be a team where I've already not selected Brock
8:45Bowers or Trey McBride. And with all those stars aligning, it doesn't happen very often. So when it does, I feel like
8:53if he checks my boxes where again, I don't have McBride, I don't have Bowers, and he falls to the fifth, that's the
9:02scenario in which I'll go ahead and I'll take Drake London. Okay, now let me pull this around.
9:12Jameson Williams off at 52. I really like Jameson Williams specifically in baseball, of course. Um Z says, "Is the season pass given away every day?" Yes,
9:20sir. We give away a free flogfantasy.com season pass every single day on this live stream if you want to enter in to
9:26win one for free. All you got to do is drop a like on the live stream um and type the word season pass into
9:34the live chat. You do those two things, you will enter in to win a free flockfantasy.com season pass. Now Brandon says, "Mason, what's your
9:42Jeremiah Love exposure?" Again, I am completely fine taking Jeremiah Love in the third round. I'm actually gonna have a video that comes out about this
9:49relatively soon. Haven't recorded it yet, so it's not out yet. Um, but I think a lot of people are very worried
9:55about Genty. A lot of people are worried about the rookie season for Bejian Robinson and just thinking Jeremiah Loves destined to repeat that as another
10:03highly drafted running back in a garbage offense.
10:06But again, those running backs were both round one picks their rookie seasons.
10:09And we actually had a video on the channel saying like, "History says don't draft these running backs." We looked at sportsbook projections and they told us
10:17the Raiders were going to be a garbage offense. We're like, hey, probably don't want to draft Genty round one, which again, Jeremiah Love, similar scenario.
10:25Right now, sports books are saying that the Cardinals are supposed to be a garbage offense, but he goes in round three, so completely different. So, I
10:32I've been fine taking him. I'll pull up his card here on flockfantasy.com. In terms of where I have selected him, my
10:38average pick of him is 24.8. So pretty much exactly at the beginning of the third round, I have them in 9.6% of my
10:46drafts. So I'm only 1.3% higher than the field on him. So it's not like I've been taking him a ton, but again, if he falls
10:53to the third round, I think it's a very reasonable price point to take him.
10:58Now, let's pull this over. Rasheed Rice is going at 14 on ESPN reddraft. Is that crazy? Um, yeah. Yeah, if you just go
11:06over I think you should have access to the flockfantasy.com consensus ADP sheet for free. I'll pull up and see where Rashi Rice is going for
11:14you there, my friend. Um, Rice, yeah, he has an ADP of 17 in ESPN leagues, but he goes in the middle of the third round in
11:21Yahoo. He goes at the end of the third round on Sleeper. So, him going there at pick 17 in ESPN, pick 19 in CBS is a
11:29pretty early compared to all the other platforms. So, I know you're spamming that question, my friend, but yes, the answer to that is yes. B. Harris says,
11:37"Do you take rookies often?" Yeah, I'm completely fine taking rookies.
11:40Obviously, a lot of these rookies you'll take, they'll have incredibly low floors, but also you can hit big ceilings. There's a lot of uncertainty.
11:47So, with the wide range of outcomes that you have, a lot can happen. Now, let's move this down. For us, the biggest team need,
11:56it's not that close either, is going to be wide receiver. Parker Washington off the board at 67.
12:05Okay, Eric says, "Hey, Mason, I took Tet over Ibuka in my reddraft league and I kind of regret it. What's your opinion
12:10on this?" I think they're both incredibly similar. I would prefer real quick. We're about to be on the clock. Um Joe Burrow goes, "The team
12:18after us does not have a Chicago Bears pass catcher. We really need a receiver.
12:22So, I'm going to take Mai Limited 71 with the expectations we get Caleb Williams on the way back around at 74."
12:28But one, it is insane for y'all to be doing your reddraft drafts already. Can you please let me know in the live chat
12:38if you were here? Have you done Oh, dear God, Caleb Williams off the board. At this point, I think wide receiver is
12:45still incredibly important. We could pull up Dak Prescott if we really wanted. And honestly, our pass catching I mean our pass catchers are extremely limited.
12:56So, I think I am going to pull Dak Prescott. Uh, because like if we're looking at our stacking options, we have Mai Lemon, Jaylen Herz is
13:03already off the board. Coulson Lovelin, Caleb Williams is already off the board.
13:06So, George Piggins is our last pass catcher that we can stack up. So, we're going to reach on Dak here because
13:12there's a 0% chance he makes it back around to us at 95.
13:17But obviously, the hope was going to be that we took Caleb Williams at 74, but sadly that did not happen.
13:24But yeah, do not, for the love of God, anybody watching this, do not do your reddraft draft right now.
13:32Again, like y'all can tell I do a ridiculous amount of underdog drafts through the summer because in my opinion, it's like the best way to
13:43scratch that draft itch. It's not going to replace your ESPN league, not going to replace your Yahoo League, but you can get in like real money drafts that
13:51at the same time, and crazy note, the team at three has yet to draft a running back, but you can get like real money drafts that doesn't
14:00impact your ability to manage your team during the season since there's no time commitment. So, for me, I think this is
14:07like the perfect time of year to do your research for your drafts. I think it's the perfect time of year to get in some
14:12baseball drafts so you're not going to have to worry about during the year. But for your regular Yahoo draft, you should
14:20be waiting until August. Like the Flock League, we're doing our draft in the middle of August. It's like August 19th.
14:26And I would honestly probably recommend y'all waiting even further where I would recommend y'all do yours the very end of August or the very beginning of
14:35September. Now, obviously, a lot of it's going to come down to your exact um schedule. Like, Nico says his draft has to be August 17th because of
14:46college. Um Teresa's is August 29th. Um Snyder says drafting August 8th because of schedules. Happy to see Adar Snyder.
14:55But yeah, exactly. Like if your schedule lines up, I understand doing your draft earlier in August. Like again, Flock League, I think our draft is like August
15:0216th or something like that. um because that's the way that our schedules line up. Got to do travel. Everybody's coming in from across the world. So again,
15:11August like 16th, middle August is the best date for us. But if you were just going like schedules don't matter, probably the best date for your reddraft
15:19league is early September because when's the official date of the start of the season? NFL
15:29season start date 2026.
15:32It is September 9th. Yeah. So, you can do it like and it starts on Wednesday.
15:40So, I mean, if you do, let's just pull up a calendar.
15:45If September 9th is the first day of the season, you can go like August 30th, August 29th, and it'll be like two
15:55weekends before.
15:58That's what I would recommend. But like if you're coming in saying like you've already drafted your reddraft team, that's just crazy. The team at 10 has
16:05ripped five running backs before they've taken their second wide receiver. But to be fair, they get an incredible value with Chuba Hubard at 87, which in my
16:14mind is just absurd. I think you're pricing them in there to be like a pure handcuff. Not a pure handcuff, but a
16:20pure committee back with Jonathan Brooks. And I think he could be the straightup starter.
16:25Now Rico Dattle off the board. I don't want to say anything until we're on the clock. Obviously, pretty high stakes in
16:30this draft.
16:36Vero says, "Mason, I drove from Vegas to Arizona to draft with you tonight. Are you doing another one? What's the next
16:42one?" Here's the deal, my friend. One, we're going to take Jaden Reed because we need a wide receiver more than anything. Two, I started this stream at
16:49midnight, so my plan was to do one draft and get out of here. However, if you were telling me you drove from Vegas to
16:56the Arizona border so you can hop into an underdog draft with us, it would be absolutely cold and heartless if I did
17:03not get in a second draft for you. So, yes, sir, I will get in a second draft with you and I will do whatever underdog
17:11draft you want me to do out of the PPR draft, out of the puppy or out of baseball mania. So, you name it, I'll do
17:19it with you. appreciate you um going out of your way to try to get into a draft with us tonight.
17:27Um Blake Cororm off the board.
17:33Let's take Leaporta and let's call it a day at tight end.
17:39Teresa says, "Mason, I drove a state over to draft some $5 drafts today."
17:42Teresa, I hope you're doing well. I would have loved the flock league audition. Gonna be honest. Gonna be honest. I may would have been a little
17:49biased. I would have maybe just tried to push you through to the finals anyway I could have but happy to see out in the
17:54chat regardless.
17:57Now once we take Leaporta again your regular reraft league you would never go through and take a second tight end here. I think I'm going to in a best
18:06format. I just think Leaporta outscores a lot of the other wide receivers that are available like Ricky Pierall. And if we go with Leaporta here to pair with
18:13Lovelin we're going to stop at two tight ends.
18:18Now, Bitter Hornet says, "Hey, Mason Bitter Hornet, first year redraft last year. Both teams made the playoffs. Hell yes. Number one rated in their league.
18:24You the man. Hoping for another good year. I really appreciate you, my guy.
18:28And I am needing to get it done. Today was honestly, I'm going to be real with y'all. Y'all can tell. I mean, I started
18:36my live stream at midnight tonight. I think it's kind of obvious I'm not making this up, but life has been so
18:44freaking busy lately that it's like unbelievable how busy it's been. But what I really need to do that is on my
18:52to-do list is I need to order merch ASAP and Bitter Hornet as soon as we get a new shipment of like hats or shirts in
19:01or something. I'll be super happy to send you some stuff for free, my guy.
19:05But hopefully I can get that done ASAP.
19:14We will see. We'll see.
19:16Now Brent says, "Who in the flock league do you want to sweep the most this season?" Obviously S. Easy answer to
19:21that one.
19:24Um, easily Mr. Veter. He started off year one in dead last halfway through the
19:36season.
19:38Since then, he's just gone on an absolute heater. I need to put him back in his place.
19:44Kamoria says, "I need a flock dad hat."
19:46So, I have a box of hats across from me right now. We still have a bunch of them, but I mean, I have like say these
19:53hats here, right, just sitting over by my desk. So, obviously on saw we ordered like thousands of these last year and
19:59sent like thousands of them out for free. What I think I'm going to do this year, these I did not send out for free.
20:06This I just made for the Flock League stuff. Um, this year, what I think I'll make is the actual like logo of this
20:15YouTube channel, like the little orange duck.
20:19I think we'll throw this on like a black dad hat.
20:27And I'll do that. Hats are just easier if like I'm going to be shipping y'all thousands of hats. Um, and just doing it
20:34by like y'all filling out a Google form like we did last year, you know, as the free giveaway. It's hats are so much
20:40easier because there's one size and you don't have to track inventory at different sizes. Um, in comparison to t-shirts. So, I think we'll do hats
20:48again. I think I'll get like a black dad hat and throw this logo on it. I think that would look good and different than
20:55what we did last year because obviously a lot of y'all who got hats last year, I don't want to just send y'all the same
21:00hat.
21:04Okay, now Jared Gotha off at 117. We'll swing this over. I think if you're just looking at what's highlighted with us
21:12for the draft assistant, I mean the draft assistant's highlighting Jordan Love here throwing the picture of Jaden Reed. Obviously, we have a stack. We
21:19need a second quarterback. So very simple for us to just go ahead and take love, pair them up with Jaden Reed.
21:28Okay, Johnny says, "You should make flock fantasy trading cards." I have no idea how to do that, my friend.
21:38Aiden says, "Give us cowboy hats." I'm going to be honest with you. If they were cowboy hats, there's no way in hell
21:43I could afford to give away that many for free.
21:48Um, I'm assuming one to make them it would cost a lot and two to ship them it would cost a lot. Like these hats. Ah,
21:57shoot. Do goes, um, I need a wide receiver. Jaden Higgins is trending in the wrong direction, but we need wide receiver more than anything else.
22:07But going through and looking at I'm like shipping a hat like this, right? Just to tell you all the math
22:19behind it. I don't exactly remember how much they cost me to make per hat. I think it was like say 12 13 bucks
22:27something in that vicinity. You have like the stitching on the side this. But to ship them, like if we just ship them
22:33in the US, incredibly cheap because they just go into like a little baggie and they cost like six bucks to ship. If we
22:40had to do like a cowboy hat that had to go into like a box where it didn't get squished because I mean these things can
22:46get squished, right? We don't got to worry about that.
22:49I I would assume shipping on that would be like double.
22:54Okay. Gregory says, "Ever consider playing off the college theme and double meaning by making flock merch." Good idea. That is a good idea, my friend.
23:03Um, I need to be more creative with merch. I put out the bounty where if anybody designed a shirt that we ended
23:09up using and printing out and giving to people, I'll pay you 500 bucks and obviously get you the shirt for free.
23:18Um, nobody really sent us something that was interesting to make. I know we had one person send us a shirt that looked
23:23like I hate to say this out loud because obviously it's an very rude thing for me to say. They took the time out of their
23:28day to make it. just gonna keep it a buck. Looked like they it was just chatbt generated. So I was like probably
23:34not using this my guy. Um but if anybody makes us a real good shirt, I'll pay you for it. And assuming we use it. If you
23:43send me something that's not great, not going to be honest. I'm gonna be honest with you. If you just have Chad GPT whip
23:47something up in 30 seconds, I'm not paying you for that. But make something, send it to us. I'll get it to you for
23:52free and I'll pay you.
23:58Okay.
23:59Harry says, "Where do we send it?" The designs you would need to send to masonflockfantasy.com.
24:08Now, Katon Mitchell off at 133.
24:21Dalton can cade off at 134 for us.
24:27I know the draft assistant's going to tell us to take a third tight end. I'm just frankly not going to listen to it.
24:32Like the draft assistant wants us to stop at four running backs having Bejon Love and Scataboo.
24:41But like tight ends, higher semi-finals and higher finals rates with only two when we have Lovelin and Leaporta. And again, I think we're getting a pretty decent
24:50value with these guys as well. So, I'm going to ignore this draft assistant.
24:54Instead of taking three Titans, I'm only going to take two. And then I'm going to use that other spot for the fifth
24:58running back. Again, if you look at the math underlying, I think five running backs, four running backs historically is pretty close. And
25:05five running backs in my mind just feel safer. But we do need to get to eight wide receivers regardless looking at the
25:10math.
25:13Okay, Omar Cooper off the board.
25:19We'll swing this around. I don't want to say anything until we are on the clock.
25:28We will take Straoud because the team after us, I don't know if they're going to take a third quarterback having Caleb
25:33and Pertie and they took an unstacked Caleb. I'd be afraid of them taking an unstacked Straoud. And we do have Jaden
25:39Higgins for our stack. And I know in the $500 draft that we did last night, obviously we took a couple unstacked
25:43quarterbacks like Well, we ended up stacking. Then we took Burrow and then we took Aaki in the last round. We had
25:48Dak Prescott, then we took Jake Ferg and um Ryan Florenoi.
25:55I think I would rather have Jaylen McMillan, I'm sorry, Jaylen Naylor over Jaylen McMillan.
26:01But the thought process there was like in the $500 draft tournament on Underdog. It's a smaller field contest.
26:09They're only like 2,000 teams that you got to go up against. If you're drafting in baseball mania, stacks are going to
26:15matter a lot because again, it is such a large tournament. 670,000 teams are going to get drafted in this.
26:24And if you want to turn your 25 bucks into 2 million or into a million, 500k, you can see all the prizes. You have to
26:30be a top two scoring team in your 12 team draft to make it to the fantasy playoff tournament. Then in week 15, you
26:36have to beat 13 other people. Week 16, you have to beat 11 other people. And then week 17, which is very difficult to
26:43get there. I've only ever had two teams make it to the finals, you have to play against 666 other people and beat them if you want to turn
26:52your 25 bucks into 2 million.
26:55So if you are going to have like those crazy big performances, you kind of want to have the quarterback that correlates with the wide receiver.
27:04That way if like say Dak Prescott blows up, George Pickkins is probably going to blow up, right? and vice versa. So, we
27:13want to make sure that we are correlating our bets in such a large field contest like this. Um, where again in the smaller draft that we did
27:22yesterday, I was a little bit less concerned about stacking. But that draft had like 2,000 people in the tournament as opposed to this one. Again, I think
27:31we're sitting with what did I say?
27:33600,000 something insane.
27:36It's like $25 buy and $15 million um price pool.
27:43Deception says, "What are the taxes on winning if you win big?" I would assume it's whatever. It's dependent on the state you live in.
27:53I'm going to be honest. I'm not an accountant. My tax person does all my tax stuff for me. I just send him my
27:58forms and he does it. But let's ask Google. Um, if I win $2 million in a fantasy football draft, how much do
28:13I have to pay in taxes?
28:17We'll see what Google has to say.
28:20Denzel Boston off at 158.
28:24Sounds like you'll owe 695,000 in taxes if you win two million. So, you have like 1.4 4 million left.
28:3523rd frame says, "How many miles today, Mason?" Today I ran over to a hill next to my house and then we just went up and
28:41down the hill over and over again. So mileage wise, not super impressive. I did get in some elevation gain though.
28:49We had about 1100 feet in elevation gain and about 8.8 miles. But this is the first time in a long time that I've
28:57actually felt good running where obviously I'll know I've been very sick which has absolutely sucked.
29:04But now I'm not coughing up nearly as much crap as I was previously. But I mean this now Mrs. Flock is dealing with
29:11this sickness and I just feel so bad like for giving it to her because I just dealt with it for literally two weeks. like I'm still
29:21kind of dealing with the repercussions, but um I just feel so bad because she started it a few days ago and I know like it
29:32takes her a while to get over sicknesses. Like if she gets a cough, she's coughing for like two months to the point where she had she's she'll
29:40have had a cough for six weeks and then she looks she coughs. I look over at her and it just annoys me to no end. Not to
29:47her fault, but because I have my own mental problems.
29:52But I'm trying to tell myself, come on, don't get annoyed. I mean, obviously, we're only a couple days in.
29:58We're not a couple weeks in at this point, but even when we're four weeks in and she's still coughing, I'm going to
30:03have to remind myself, you're the one who got her sick, buddy. Don't lose your mind. Don't be mean because you're the
30:10one who brought the sickness into the house.
30:14We're going to take Alier because you know the number one draft strategy in fantasy football is always monopolize the backfield touches for the Arizona
30:22Cardinals.
30:24That is the smartest thing you can possibly do.
30:29Okay, now we are on the clock again because we've we're going to take Alvin Kamara here. I moved Kamar to the top of
30:36my running back rankings and then we will scoop wide receivers through the end of this draft. We're going to take three more wide receivers at the end.
30:45But Mr. Zufa says, "Yeah, my mom has the same sickness too right now. Thanks a lot, Mason.
30:52I'm sorry. I'm sorry, my friend."
30:56And tell Mrs. Zufa or Madame Zufa that I'm sorry as well.
31:03But let's run through this team.
31:04Quarterback, we have a ton of points. We have Dak Prescott stacked with Pickkins.
31:08We have Jordan Love stacked with Reed.
31:10We have CJ Strad stacked with Jaden Higgins. So, ton of points at quarterback. Tight end feel pretty damn good. We got Coulson Lovelin and Sam
31:16Leaporta. Running back, I feel great. We have Bejon, Jeremiah Love, Scataboo, Tyler Algier, and Alvin Kamara. The position that sucks, and I mean it sucks
31:27for us, is wide receiver where we have George Pickkins, Mai Limmon, Jaden Reed, wide receiver three, Jaden Higgins, wide
31:36receiver four, and Jaylen Naylor wide receiver five.
31:42So, we're going to rip three wide receivers at the very end of this draft.
31:46three just straight up bums and pray that they give us some usable weeks early, right? Or not even just early.
31:55They just give us usable weeks period is what we're going to need.
32:01And I don't have a ton of faith with these guys we're going to draft. I'll be honest with y'all.
32:08Now, Kings Wilden says, "What app is he using for this?" This is underdog fantasy for the drafts, my friend.
32:15Again, link is in the description comment section if you wanted to draft with us. Code flock gets you 50 bucks added to your account after you play
32:22your first five and you get access to our tools for free. Or if you're asking about our tools like the rankings and
32:29stuff, that's flockfantasy.com with the best ball package.
32:34Okay, now Mike I mean Malik Washington almost called him Mike Washington off 181. For us, it's incredible to see Titans go and
32:44obviously we want to see running backs go as well.
32:48Dr. Goose says, "Who's your most drafted player so far?" That is a phenomenal question. Let me go ahead and I will
32:56sync my latest drafts with flockfantasy.com. Then I'll pull up my portfolio to show y'all.
33:04Let me just make sure I get the latest draft synced in.
33:10Okay, Ray Davis off 184.
33:13I had 23 drafts that I hadn't synced yet.
33:19Gino Smith off 185. This team's quarterback room is Daniel Jones, Mendoza, Gino Smith.
33:25Running back, they have Taylor Walker, Henderson.
33:28Really interesting. I haven't seen a team built like that in a while.
33:33Okay, let me now pull up best ball. I think I don't want to even guess of who my most drafted player is going to be.
33:40Obviously, it was Quinton Johnson early, but his ADP's risen so much that it's impossible to take him now. My two most
33:48drafted players, I knew one of them was going to be this. Would y'all like to take a guess? Who do you think my most
33:54drafted player is from a percent standpoint? Who do you think my most drafted player is? Okay, we are just ripping wide receivers through the rest
34:04of this. We can take Tank Dell who stacks with CJ Strad.
34:08But let me know in the chat. We'll see if anybody gets it.
34:16Parker Washington close but no cigar.
34:19Isaac Tesla Tet Reed Han JN says the real question is who's your most drafted Longhorn? We can figure that out right after. I thank God it's
34:30not. Emmit Johnson. Big Q. T-Mac.
34:38Um, JSN, Naylor, JSN, Booty, Aayuke.
34:44Oh crap, we're on the clock. Okay, that was close. We just need to take wide receivers, whoever they may be. Um, our
34:51most drafted wide, I'm sorry, most drafted player is Tedoroa McMillan. I've taken them at an average pick, pick pick 38 according to flockasy.com.
35:03He currently has an ADP of 39. Obviously in this draft he goes at 32, but typically he's going at the beginning of
35:09the fourth to the middle of the fourth.
35:11And I think Ted McMillan's a phenomenal player. I think he's the next Drake London.
35:17And then nobody even guessed my second most drafted player.
35:23And Conman says Johnson. Yeah. So the thing with and why am I even wasting time in this draft? Let's just go ahead
35:28and queue up wide receivers and then we'll bounce to the next one. Um, ceue up these names.
35:37Do I want to queue up Tyreek? I'm I'm dumb enough to queue up Tyreek. That's how dumb I am.
35:45I can't I'm I'm done with Iuk. I can't do it.
35:50And we'll throw in a Let's just find somebody at the very bottom. Let's throw in a Caleb Douglas just so we can try to
35:56get a little cute with it. And if we don't get any of these guys, we'll just make sure we get a wide receiver by
36:00queuing all these players up. Okay, let's bounce to our next draft and let's get in another BBM. Uno. Aro, I'm sorry,
36:08says he wants a $5 PPR. I AO said he drove from Vegas to Arizona to get into a draft with us. So, I'm going to listen
36:17to him. We are going to get in a $ five PPR draft on underdog.
36:24I'm in. Hopefully, you are in this one with me, my friend.
36:29I am sorry for juking anybody who I tricked to get into the basketball mania draft. I promise you I did not intend on
36:38doing so.
36:40Okay.
36:41Now, so I saw somebody said like Imit Johnson when it comes to our most drafted players, which funny enough, if you go to the portfolio page on
36:49flockfasantasy.com for your basketball teams and sort by dollars spent, Emit Johnson is my number one player with
36:58dollars spent so far this year.
37:04I don't know why. Um, I just really, really need him to be the running back, too, for the Kansas City Chiefs.
37:16If he's not, I'm cooked. Absolutely cooked if he's not. Let me look up the Chiefs depth chart.
37:24Okay, as of right now, which obviously these dep charts are very unofficial, we have Kenneth Walker, RB1, Emit
37:34Johnson, RB2, Dermacado, RB3, Brashad Smith, RB4.
37:39Please, buddy, be the second running back for the Kansas City Chiefs. Being the starter would be even better, but I'm not that delusional.
37:50Okay.
37:53Dapper Dave says, "Why is your jersey backwards?" Because I wanted to look Dapper in this live stream, my friend.
37:58Simple as that.
38:03Okay. Fuj says, "It'll be interesting to see if the PPR ADP is much different."
38:06Yeah, we will figure it out. Um, I've seen JT fall a bit round one here. I mean, pick eight, we should be in a good
38:12spot to grab a wide receiver. Obviously, McAffrey comes more appealing in a full PPR format as opposed to a half PPR
38:17league, but I'm assuming Macaffrey will be off the board.
38:23Ryan says, "Hey, Mason, are you going to end up making a Flock Fantasy app or just stick to the website?" So, we have
38:29a team of three developers on flockfantasy.com.
38:33essentially how the responsibilities have fallen lately for the team of devs cuz obviously they are shout out to the dev team. They are
38:44working their butts off because it's the biggest time of year for Flock Fantasy, Flockfantasy.com,
38:53etc., etc., etc. Like u the biggest time of year is when we're selling the season passes. I think that is obvious to
39:00anybody.
39:02But so they're working and grinding super hard. One of the devs is working exclusively on all the draft sheets with all the different platforms, all the
39:10different league settings, etc., etc.
39:12Um, they're also working on the consensus ADP, and then all the payment stuff.
39:17One of the other devs is working on all the live draft assistants for your underdog, sleeper, Yahoo, ESPN, all those drafts.
39:26The third dev is working on building out the Apple mobile app as well as the Android mobile app. He's been working on
39:37that for about two months now. And we are in the process of getting approved by Apple and getting approved by Android. And we are really I think it's
39:47called Google Play. I don't have an Android. I have an iPhone so I'm not too familiar with that. But we are I'm
39:53having to send all my business documents and stuff to get approved. So once Apple and Google Play approve us, we will also
40:02have an app for y'all. And you don't have to go to the website flockfantasy.com. You'll be able to download the app.
40:12Chase Brown goes 16.
40:15Full PPR format. I think I may get a little weird here. I may pull London around.
40:22Now, we'll just listen our rankings.
40:24We'll go Walker. We start balanced with CD Lamb. Obviously, Walker's less exciting in a full PPR league, but it is what it is. We'll stay balanced.
40:34Okay. Charles says, "JT has an easier schedule this year compared to last."
40:38Um, frankly, it probably doesn't matter because let me go ahead and let me pull up the sportsbook projections.
40:45Let's just pull up Vegas projections from flockfantasy.com.
40:50And looking at this, so the Indianapolis Colts averaged 27.4 points per game last season. Sports books currently have them projected to
41:01average 23.4 points per game this season. That's four points per game fewer than they did last year. The only offenses that are
41:10supposed to regress more year-over-year are going to be the New England Patriots, who project actually to score five fewer points per game this year
41:18than they did last, and the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are projected to score 4.6 points per game fewer.
41:27Okay, now your says, "Hey man, when I try to sign up for the site, it says
41:38confirmation sent never sends an email."
41:40I'm assuming you're talking about flockfantasy.com.
41:43Two things. One, I would just try to sign into your um account. You probably already have an account if that's happening. And two, if um not, I would
41:53shoot an email to supportflockfantasy.com and somebody from the dev team would be super happy to help you out, my friend.
42:04Okay, Nagbuka off the board at 25. And yeah, Dererick Henry makes it all the way down to 24.
42:13So definitely I mean and McBride gets pushed up to 22.
42:19Interesting to see these adjustments.
42:24Interesting comment says, "Check your spam folder." Yeah, maybe check your spam folder.
42:31Okay.
42:37Okay. Interesting comment says, "Check your spam folder for the code. It's there. Sent by Mason Dodd."
42:42So hopefully they're not all going to your spam, but can't be hurt to just double check there.
42:54Let's swing this around. Z says, "Are you going to give away a season pass the stream?" Yes, sir. I already answered
42:59you on that. At the end of this live stream, we are going to be giving away a free flockfantasy.com season pass. All
43:04you got to do is two things. One, drop a like on the stream. And then two, drop your flockanty.com username in. I'm
43:10sorry. Drop a like on the stream and then type season pass into the live chat. If you do those two things, it
43:18will enter you in to win a free one.
43:20Okay. So, T against my highest ranked player. We're going to go ahead and snag him here, especially in a full PPR
43:24format.
43:26And keep in mind, underdog, you have to start three wide receivers as well.
43:31Vinnie says, "Mason, have you ever eaten spam?" I'll be honest with you, I never have.
43:37Not that I'm above it. I've probably eaten more hot dogs, fish sticks, and chicken nuggets than everybody else in this live stream combined.
43:47I don't do that as much now that I'm older. When I was younger, I definitely did.
43:53I don't know if I've I'm sure I've told you all this before, but um shout out my parents. Love my parents. Best parents
44:00ever. Set me up for success in great ways. But my mom had me in college. So, of course, you have a kid in college. My
44:07dad was a bartender. They had no money.
44:10So when I was very little, we had very little. So hot dogs are pretty damn
44:17cheap. So I gobbled hot dogs down almost exclusively as my only food source for a long time.
44:27So while I haven't eaten spam, I've eaten ton of fake meat. Don't worry.
44:36But let me know if I'm missing out. But it's because I've eaten so many hot dogs, fish sticks, and chicken nuggets.
44:46I try to steer clear of that stuff now.
44:49Now, chicken strips, chicken sandwiches, completely different story.
44:55That's real meat.
44:58Okay, now let's And sausages completely different than hot dogs. Sausages are phenomenal.
45:08Okay. Um I'm going to take neighbors. I know people absolutely clown on this, but again, I probably don't do this in
45:18the flock league. However, it's a $5 entry, $100,000 prize pool. The playoffs matter more than anything. I care about what the ceiling is for these guys in
45:28weeks 15, 16, 17. I think Neighbors is going to be back by that point.
45:34Scott says, "Mason, I saw your chicken sandwich tier list. You got to try Golden Check. One of the best fast food
45:38chicken sandwiches in Austin. I'll try it."
45:42Dal says, "Basically, you're a gizzy gobbler that loves fish sticks. Got it."
45:48Yes, sir. I'm a gizzy gobbler that has had my share of fish sticks in my day.
45:56Okay.
46:04Swing this around.
46:09Scat off at 46. Jacobs makes it down to 45.
46:16Master truck says 50,000 views on the chicken sandwich video is nuts. It truly is.
46:22Like it makes me need to record a burger tier list. Y'all haven't seen this I uploaded just from like a Mason Dodd
46:32YouTube channel a video.
46:38It's a top 15 chicken sandwich rankings and tears.
46:42This thing is at 56,000 views two weeks in. It's pretty much done getting views now though. I checked it earlier today.
46:50But unbelievable.
46:52But I know I've already told y'all this story, so I apologize for the people who know, but I'm just damn excited. And I
46:57really hope I find the time to do it.
46:59And also, I gotta get my brother and Mrs. Flock to help me. So, can I call my I'll call my brother Little Flock. So, I
47:08got to get little Flock and Mrs. Flock to help me. But, I'm gonna have Little Flock drive me around. Mrs. Flock sit in
47:15the passenger seat. I'm gonna have blindfolds and then big ear muffs. I'm gonna blind taste test um burgers and we're gonna like
47:24cheeseburgers right after we drive through the drive-thru, right? So, they're fresh and I don't know what they are because I'll have the ear muffs and
47:33the blindfold on.
47:35And I'm excited. Obviously, I love cheeseburgers. I'm excited to find which one's the best. And also, the problem with the chicken sandwich video, of
47:43course, is that they were all cold. I'm going to take JMO again. I think wide receivers should be pushed up in the full PPR format in a
47:51league where you can start three weekly.
47:53I'm sorry, start four weekly and you have to start at the very minimum three.
47:57So getting to Jameson Williams here at 56 feels good.
48:03Okay, Trent says you should do an ice cream treat one. Yeah, we have a I mean there are an infinite amount of videos that
48:12you can make like that. And of course, if anybody's watching this and y'all like making YouTube videos or Tik Toks or anything and you like eating food,
48:22free ideas, chicken sandwich tier list video, burger tier list video, ice cream sandwich tier list video. You do a thousand different versions of it, you
48:29know.
48:31Nico says, "Will you do an ESPN fantasy football mockdraft?" Yes, sir. We just did an ESPN fantasy football mockdraft um last week. If you weren't able to see
48:40it, just you can go back pull it up on the channel and we'll do another one soon as well. But I want to wait until
48:46we get a big update to the draft assistant and we're just going to like go through every time we get a massive
48:52update to the live draft assistants.
48:54We're going to do another round of reddraft mocks on those platforms mainly because I need to test it and I need to
49:01make sure that um the upgrades are what we wanted.
49:09Okay, Mr. Nick Ducey says, "Need the eating 20,000 calories and burning 20,000 calories challenge."
49:19I probably did that in the 100 mile ultramarathon.
49:24We're gonna take Lamar Jackson. Crazy to get Lamar Jackson to pick 65.
49:30And honestly, I am super happy with our decision to go against the ADP. ADP had AJ Brown ahead of Kenneth Walker there
49:37in the second. Um, again, because PPR format push up the wide receivers a bit in comparison to these regular half PPR
49:43underdog drafts. But yeah, taking Walker there and getting the anchor running back, allowing us to rip these wide receivers early and still
49:53get the elite QB with Lamar feels phenomenal.
49:58Okay, Michael says, "Hey, Mason, did you update the ADPs on ESPN since they updated it today?" So, last year when I
50:05did all the draft sheets custom, like right on the Google sheets and y'all just had to go to the Google sheet, find
50:11your league settings, and use that draft sheet. Um, I was only able to update them once a week because obviously I had
50:17to go through it took me so freaking long. Like every Sunday I did it and took like seven hours to manually update
50:23those like 50 draft sheets with y'all for all the new rankings and ADPs. But what the devs and I have worked so damn
50:29hard on with FlockFantasy.com is to automate all of that where it updates daily for y'all. So, every time I update my rankings, the draft sheets
50:38will update. And every time that ADP updates, the draft sheets will update as well. So, um, if sleeper I mean, if ESPN
50:46ADP updated today, well, um, flockfantasy.com would have already run and saw that and pulled in the latest ESPN.
50:55And y'all can see this too where if you're on the like ADP page, you can see the movement with ADP over time. Um,
51:05like so here's an example like Sleeper.
51:07Dererick Henry's moved six spots up in their ADP. Dererick Henry had an ADP a pick 31 in Sleeper I guess seven days
51:14ago and now he's up to pick 25. So you can see the movement and that's going to run every day on flockfantasy.com for
51:20y'all.
51:23Okay, now DK Metaf off at 76.
51:32Bezy Jelly says, "Why not instead of using earmuffs, you just order the food and pick it up so you won't know what
51:38place it's from? So, if I pick it up from a restaurant, I'll know what restaurant I picked it up from." I don't
51:44understand the I don't understand the question there, my friend.
51:50Okay, Tony Pard off at 78. I would like to get a running back. We'll see if we get one. Dak Prescott does stack with
51:56Lamb. Obviously, it's best. We could go through. We could take our second quarterback, but honestly, I'm going to take Chuba. I know he is falling like a
52:03rock in the last draft. I think we saw him fall to the eighth round, but I'm not all in on the Jonathan Brooks
52:12being the starting running back for the Carolina Panthers train.
52:18I don't know if that's the case.
52:26Okay, now downs Alec Pier go. So I mean obviously what we're hoping for in a CD Lamb team is you're always hoping you're
52:34going to be able to take Dak Prescott in the eighth round which we get Lamar in round six. Dak in round eight's
52:40phenomenal quarterback room. We wouldn't have had to spend much on it either.
52:48She says, "The main reason Mason wants to eat the food right away rather than picking it up is because cheeseburgers get too soggy." Yeah, that is true. Like
52:54if you had to pick a sandwich to like sit for an hour before you ate it.
53:01I would pick a chicken sandwich to sit for an hour way before I'd pick a cheeseburger. Like I don't want to eat
53:06cheeseburgers that have been sitting around for an hour. We'll take Courtland Sutton as our wide receiver five.
53:14I love this team. I like this team a lot more than the one we drafted previously.
53:24Okay, Jack says they let Chuba play over Dow after he got 400 yards and uh two wins in two games for whatever reason. Safe
53:34to say he'll play over Brooks. That is true. Like Rico Dattle had the best twoame stretch of any running back we've
53:41seen in the NFL over like the last five years. Jubard came back in and they went, "Yeah, it's your backfield."
53:53Okay, let's pull this around.
54:07Addison goes 92. I really like the Addison pick as well.
54:19Michael Wilson goes 94. I mean, we have five wide receivers. I think we're a little biased here. Probably want to see
54:23some receivers off the board.
54:40Gainwell goes 95. I guess Gainwell obviously is more um enticing in a full PPR format. I took Gainwell in the $500 draft that we did
54:50yesterday and I want to say it took Gainwell to pick 119, but again I completely understand full PPR format, you're going to be more excited to draft
55:01those passcatching running backs.
55:05Okay, Well Robinson off the board.
55:15And yeah, Wandell is another example.
55:17Full PPR a little more exciting for just the PPR scammer really.
55:29Okay.
55:32Rock party goes 98.
55:56Okay, for a second I was dumb enough to think R.J. Harvey was going to make it to us.
56:03Didn't see him go.
56:07Scotty says, "Is Harris okay at the 101?" Naji, no. Damian, yes.
56:17says, "Mason, who's the safest pick from the 103 to the 112 range?" Probably Jamar Harold Fannon off 102. We're just going
56:27to rip running backs here. We only have Walker and Hubard. Draft assistant telling us we want six running backs again, primarily because I mean, we're
56:34chilling here. We only need one more quarterback when we have Lamar. And what's exciting about this as well is the QBs that are available. Dart stacks
56:42with Neighbors, Nick stacks with Sutton, Goff stacks with JMO. So, we have a ton of different quarterback options. Like, if anybody really falling to us at 113,
56:50we'll be fine. And we can be done at quarterback there. And we still get to draft three more running backs to this
56:55team.
56:57And then obviously, we'll take three tight ends as well.
57:01Okay.
57:11So Bo goes 107s off 108. I like the pits selection a lot. Like if we miss on our quarterback
57:21stacks here, I would have taken Pitts.
57:25And again, obviously we don't have Lamar stacked. I'm fine not having Lamar stacked. He has a ton of rushing upside.
57:30So you can see a big spike week just with rushing touchdowns and yards.
57:36Bowser says, "Is the giveaway set up right now, brother?" It should be. Let me double check for y'all.
57:43Okay. Um, thank you for pointing that out for me. Y'all are going to absolutely hate me, but the giveaway is not set up, so I
57:52need to do that. I would be more apologetic about it, but we went live at midnight, so I think it's very
57:59understandable for me not to have remembered to set up the giveaway. We're gonna take Jared Goff here to pair up with Jameson Williams. So, the giveaway
58:06was just now set up.
58:09Um, thank you for reminding me again.
58:11Uh, I got to set it up freaking every time. So, it's a little bit of an annoyance, but yes, you can get your L
58:18in there. So, again, I apologize, but if you do want to enter in to get the season pass, again, just got to do the
58:24same thing you've already done is drop a like in the stream and then type season pass into the chat. And I know it's
58:30annoying if you're watching this on on the TV or something and you got to get your phone out, but you type season pass
58:36into the chat, you will be entered in to win a free one.
58:40Okay, now KDOF 116.
58:52This is one of my favorite teams that we have drafted in quite some time. I wish this was the team that we got in the
58:57$500 draft.
59:01Like it is almost a little demoralizing like or even the draft that we did right before this the basketball mania draft.
59:10It is a little demoralizing like having a draft like the draft we
59:22did right before this I hated. I didn't like it. Like it's a fine team. team. I think we'll have a shot to win, but
59:28if I could get my 25 bucks back for the team we drafted before this, I probably would. I think it's a below average
59:34team. I don't think it's dead, but I don't like it. So, it kind of sucks to do that and then hop into a $5 draft and
59:41be in the $5 draft and go, "Oh my gosh, I love my team. My team's great in this one. Why Why couldn't this been the
59:48other one?" You know, Kenneifer says, "How do you value a onesie in an 18 PPR double flex? Picking up the seven spot and thinking of Ripen
59:59Bowers and Allen." Um, I'll show you what the draft sheets look like for an eight team league. Obviously, it's going to come down a little bit to your draft
60:06platform as well with how the ADP is going to be. So, you can get different values elsewhere, but generally in an
60:12eight team league here, I'll show you.
60:16Let me make our pick though. I don't think we're taking a quarterback. We're going to go Jakory Crossing Merritt. Um rough that he's not going to catch the
60:22ball a ton, but he could potentially be a starting running back. We take a pick 128.
60:27Now, so obviously you use these draft sheets. Just make sure you go through and you put in your exact league settings. Your exact league settings
60:35will um make adjustments here. And you'll see in an eight team league, you should go through and you should move up tight
60:44ends considerably. Like if you're just using my rankings, say in an eight team format, you'll see I have Bowowers ranked head of Justin Jefferson in an
60:52eight team league, especially like hypothetically, say you're in a tight end premium format, I'd throw Bowowers up at like seven.
61:02So while the onesies do get moved up, I don't think you need to move up like Josh Allen and Bowers where you take
61:08them at seven and nine. That seems pretty damn aggressive.
61:12But I would move them up. I'll take Bowowers earlier than I would in the 12 team format. I'll take Josh Allen
61:17earlier than I would in 12 team format.
61:19Mainly because wide receiver depth's going to be super easy to come by.
61:22That's why you're going to make the adjustment in that format.
61:29Okay, Tyler Shuck off 131. Isaiah PCO goes 133. It feels crazy to see PCO go this close to crossing merit.
61:45Um, Dallas got it off at 134.
61:54Yeah, we're going to take Concaid here.
61:55We don't have a tight end.
61:57Chris says, "Can we change the scoring in the custom league settings? My league has a bunch of bonus points that skyrocket some players." So, yes and no
62:05to this question. So, the draft sheets will adjust when you change your league scoring, but
62:16we don't have bonuses as options there, which if y'all don't know, bonuses will be like, oh, you hit 100 receiving yards, you're going to get an extra five
62:24points.
62:26Um the draft sheets, how they'll adjust to scoring is again like say tighten premium, you'll see the tight ends go up
62:36the board considerably. Um hypothetically, say you're in a nonPR format, right? Like if you look at my rankings in a nonPPR league, you'll see
62:47running backs are incredibly high. I have my running back 12, Kenneth Walker, ranked ahead of my wide receiver four in Aman Ross St. Brown. That's in a nonPPR
62:55format. So like you can adjust your scoring from nonPPR, half PPR, full PPR.
63:01Um, I'll be honest, I don't think we have any plans either to adjust rankings based on bonuses because like a big
63:08thing that I always think through is like hypothetically say your league has a bonus for a wide receiver to hit 100
63:15receiving yards. Okay. Well, what do we need to adjust for that wide receiver to hit 100 receiving? Like, what do we adjust with
63:26our draft strategy? Oh, we want wide receivers that are going to see a lot of volume and have big plays.
63:32What did we want in our fantasy draft without the bonuses? Wide receivers are going to see a lot of volume and have
63:38big plays. So, like for me, those big game bonuses, they really don't adjust my rankings at all or my strategy. I would be very open to
63:48somebody telling me that I'm wrong on that.
63:51Um, Nao the Goat says, "When is the flock I mean, when is the draft guide officially coming out for ESPN?" Um, the
63:58draft guides are out for ESPN already.
64:00Like, if you're using the draft sheets, just go over and hit the ESPN icon.
64:03It'll go through and it'll pull in all these ESPN ranks. And then also, I don't know if y'all saw I mean, if you saw my
64:09friend, but I actually did a mock draft on ESPN eight days ago showing us using the flockfantasy.com draft assistant there
64:20as well. So, you have the live draft assistant already out for ESPN and you have the custom draft sheets already out
64:27for ESPN as well if you have the season pass.
64:31Okay, let's swing this around. We can easily take Omar Cooper here. I mean, yes, garbage Jets offense, but I mean, this is a full PPR format, and he's a
64:38round one wide receiver talent. We're getting pick 152. Like, that is just a straight up no-brainer pick. And then, let me see the updated
64:47construction. I'm assuming what it's going to tell us to do is yeah, still six running backs, seven wide receivers, three tight ends. So, we need to take
64:54two more running backs, one more wide receiver, and two more tight ends.
65:00Okay.
65:03Zach says, "Is it worth it to do a few best drafts? I feel like most people win because the volume of their drafts."
65:10So, here's the deal with like volume drafters versus you doing only a few.
65:17It all comes down to the edge that you have in a draft. Hypothetically, say you are 5% better over the rest of the
65:28field, right? and you do one draft, if you're 5% better than all the other drafters that you drafted with,
65:39you're still unlikely to win, you know, but if you're, and this is all a hypothetical world, I'm not saying that I'm this person, but hypothetically,
65:49say you are 5% better than everybody and you draft 10,000 teams like over the course like say in this
66:00hypothetical scenario over the past four years I've probably drafted call it 2,000 teams I've drafted over
66:09the past four years if I'm 5% better than the average drafter over those 200 teams I'll probably be profitable right
66:18you'll see it in a sample that large if you're 5% worse 10% worse than every other drafter
66:28it doesn't matter how many drafts you draft in, you're more likely to be a loser, you know?
66:37So, like drafting a ton of teams doesn't make you any more likely to be a winner or be a loser in terms of financially,
66:46right? To win money or lose money.
66:48Drafting more teams just means you're probably when you ex get the sample size larger, it's going to reveal the truth more about how good you actually are at
66:58doing something and remove a lot of the randomness. Because fantasy football ultimately has some percent random, some percent skill. So if your sample size is
67:08really small, the randomness is going to be so crazy, it's going to be very difficult to tell if you're any good or
67:13not. you do it a lot, you're going to have a large enough sample size where you can kind of tell are you good, are
67:18you bad, are you making money, are you losing money. But just because you only do a few drafts doesn't mean like, oh, I'm going to lose
67:29to somebody who's drafted a thousand teams, hell, if somebody's really bad at drafting teams, you want them to draft a thousand teams, you know?
67:38Okay.
67:42So, um, I would just recommend you doing whatever you find is fun. I wouldn't recommend you avoiding drafts because there are other people that are going to
67:50draft way more teams than you. Those people may lose way more dollars than you do, you know. But if you don't think
67:57this is fun, I wouldn't do it. For me, I think it's a ton of fun. I've also done it enough and had enough success where
68:04I'm pretty confident in my ability as well. So, that doesn't help. I'm sorry, that doesn't hurt.
68:13Jack says, "That's why you target tournaments with a small cap in the amount of teams you have. I'm a low volume drafter, but maxed out the little
68:19board. You got 100% Genty, the most out of anyone in the tourney." Yeah. So, I mean, obviously, you can target the
68:25smaller tournaments on underdog.
68:27I don't think it matters that much, but I know some people talk about that.
68:32Uh Jayen says, "Why do I lose money when I draft all Longhorns?" I don't know, my friend. I do not know. I don't know if
68:39you're taking Lil Jordan Humphrey in round 18 this year.
68:45Okay. RVP says, "I'm 1,500 bucks deep and have an average advancement of B+.
68:49Am I at least breaking even?" So, again, another thing that I've referenced a ton, we're going to take Isaac Tesla as
68:55our last wide receiver. compare him with Goth is the most likely outcome and it should be very obvious of
69:04baseball drafts of like I mean of fantasy football tournaments of poker tournaments
69:13any type of activity where a lot of people put a little money into the pot and the pot grows really big because a
69:24lot of people put five bucks in And then there are a handful of people that win a massive amount.
69:31There are going to be way more losers than there are winners.
69:36There are going to be a ton of people that lose a little bit of money and a small amount of people that win a lot of
69:42money. That's just the structure of any tournament. Which is why it's incredibly important that you never in poker and fantasy football and anything
69:53um spend money that you can't afford to lose because the most likely outcomes you're losing it, you know, um specifically in tournaments that is.
70:04Okay.
70:06Trix says, "So I can use the flock tool in the background during my homely draft coming up in a few weeks. If so, I'm
70:11going to buy now." Yes, sir. If you are on Sleeper, ESPN or Yahoo, we have the real time draft assistance for you to
70:20use in your draft. That comes with the season pass, which again is 34 bucks on flockfantasy.com.
70:28It gets you all the draft sheets as well, all the real-time draft assistance and um also the weekly rankings, updated
70:38rest of season rankings during the year.
70:40And if you use code flock when you sign up as well, you'll get free questions that you can ask me on the live streams
70:46that we're doing every single night during the year.
70:51Fuji says, "I'm somewhat poor. I'm spending 100 to 150 max." I think that's the majority of people on Underdog.
70:57Obviously, y'all watch me live stream and spend an irresponsible amount of money. One, this is my job. Two, I'm sponsored by Underdog Fantasy, right?
71:08So, I am a very bad representation of what the average drafter is. The average person probably spends about a hundred
71:17bucks in these drafts a year. You know, of course, I don't have any of that real data. I'm not going to be able to back
71:24that up with anything, but that would be my guess with interacting with people on the live stream. Like the average person
71:30hops in like 10 to 20 of the $5 drafts.
71:38Ohio State says, "How long will the season pass deal last?" It's definitely not changing anytime soon because obviously y'all know we have a ton of
71:45creators on Flockfasy.com. It's not like I'm the only person that decides this stuff. Like we have the guys at Fantasy Land, Fantasy Domain, Fantasy Stock
71:54Exchange. And when you get the season pass, you get all their stuff too, you know? So, like it's a massive collaborative effort. So, like any
72:02decisions on pricing, any decisions on like what we make, it's a team effort that everybody works on. So, I know right now we don't have anything
72:14currently planned to go like, oh, August 1, the season pass jumps from 34 bucks to $39.
72:22Um, and since we don't have anything planned, if it were to change the meetings I there would need to be a
72:29meeting between the creators and I, we need to talk through it. And since that hasn't happened and that isn't currently scheduled, I would assume that the 34
72:38buck deal with the season pass doesn't change anytime soon.
72:43If it changes, I would assume it happens in like two to three weeks, but definitely not in the next one to two.
72:51Okay, Pat Bryan off at 199.
72:57God, I hate to see my buying amount next to Sean Tucker. That feels like absolute garbage.
73:03Teresa says, "The real time draft tool can only be used on the computer though, right?" Yes. Um, couple different options. One, if you're going to be
73:10drafting on your computer, again, you have the real time draft tools. Um, if you're going to be drafting on your phone, you have the draft sheets that
73:18you can use instead, right? which again take into account your league settings blah blah blah. Um and also if you are
73:25going to be drafting in person and you don't want to bring your laptop, you can actually go through and say um hit this
73:31download button here and it's going to download sheets that you can print out to your draft and you can go through and
73:39mark players as they get drafted, see who's left, mark who's on your team.
73:43Right? So, we have the options with the season pass for the people that are drafting in person, the people that are
73:48drafting on their computer, the people that are drafting on their phones, but almost no matter what, we've thought about it for y'all.
73:57Okay.
74:02Now, Troy Franklin off the board at 207.
74:07We're going to take our final tight ends here. We have a couple old crusty guys.
74:12So, we can take you last hours. But yeah, let's go ahead and let's give away that free flockfantasy.com season pass.
74:18Um, I should have probably set that up to give away earlier. Let's copy that.
74:24Let's go over to wheel of names and we'll give away that free season pass.
74:30Not too many entrance today. So, shout out to everybody that was here super late that got um entered in. and you got a better shot

75:36being in the live stream too much. We're going to get them hooked up with some free stuff.
75:41Um, not going to tell Riley, hey, you you were in the live stream the other day. You can't. No, we're going to
75:46reward the regulars in the live stream.
75:48The point of the free giveaway here is, hey, if you're here every night, kind of want to reward you by hooking you up
75:54with some free things.
75:56Okay, but could be a plant. That is true. We are still waiting for Riley in the chat, but perfect. Riley, I see you in the
76:05chat now. Can you please let me know what your username is? Okay, just got it. I will screenshot this and send it
76:13over. But appreciate everybody hanging out with us and I will hopefully see you out in the live stream tomorrow night.
76:21Hopefully I get all my work done a little bit earlier so that live stream doesn't have to be so late.
